What We’re Looking For:
We’re collecting and displaying materials that document your creative work and your time at Columbia, including:

Photos, videos, and audio from your time as a young creative.

Posters, flyers, and event materials from Columbia events on campus and city-wide

Drawings, designs, and original artwork that you created during this time.

Old media (tapes, records, VHS, mini-DVs, etc.) that we can digitize.

This exhibition focuses on the late 80s and early 2000s, so submissions should align with that era.
